It is with very mixed emotions I report the sale of the speakers described in this thread. This happened very quickly. My "C's" sold (locally) to the first party to look at them. I must say, sellers remorse runs strong. I owned these speakers a long time, and it seems VERY strange for them to be gone. It's awfully quiet around here. The good thing to report though is that they went to a party I am certain will treasure them as much as I have through the years. Who knows, maybe I'll own another pair some day. That would be a thrill. Anyhow, thanks to all for the help with my questions. I had numerous knowledgable responses via e-mail, as well as the posts here in this thread. The information shared was very helpful. You guys know your stuff! Until I pipe in again, take care and keep listening! Signing off looking for any comforting words, GW

Hello to all. I am the original owner of a pair of K-horns from the late 70's. Due to the need to downsize, I am reluctantly facing the sale of my beloved speakers. I prefer not to do this, but they really will not work in my home anymore due to some changes. Therefore, I soon will put them up for sale. Having said this, I need some information. When I bought my speakers, I was pretty young, so I bought the unfinished Birch models. I had them finished by a furniture and cabinet maker a short time later. The finish was well done (although it is not quite as nice as a factory finished model). After all these years, they do not have even one scratch, as they have been meticulously maintained. My K-horns do not have the riser in between the base and top. Could somebody please tell me the designation of this style? I need to know in order to properly identify them when I advertise. Also, I cannot remember exactly when I bought my speakers.......although it was in the late 70s. Will someone "in the know" tell me what the serial numbers of my speakers identify in terms of date of manufacture, ect.... The numbers are: 15T455, and 15T456. They both have the letters KC-BR on the attached Klipsch sticker. Additionally, where is the best place to market K-horns for sale? And lastly, stupid me threw out the original shipping boxes after purchase. Any suggestions on packing and shipping resources would be greatly appreciated. (I figure it is likely once I sell that these will have to be shipped out of my area.......unless I am very fortunate.) Thanks to all, GW
